Chapter 28

With an uncertain idea in her heart, Baili Changge hesitated for a moment, but when she thought that she and Fu Qingyun had never had anything to talk about, she took a closer look at the thin callus on his middle finger and asked: "How have you been lately?" Are you practicing writing?"

Because he was not favored, Fu Qingyun never had the opportunity to study in the academy. The characters he knew were all taught to him by hand and stroke by stroke by Baili Changge when he was still in the Hou's mansion.

"Hmm..." Hesitating slightly, Fu Qingyun finally nodded, with a flush of shame on his face, he thought that Baili Changge must have looked down on him for learning to write after so many years.

"With Shaoqing?" Seeing him nodding, Baili Changge continued to ask.

"Hmm... huh? No..." Responding from his thoughts, Fu Qingyun realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly shook his head to explain.

"You don't have to hide anything for him, I can see it all." Baili Changge waved his hand.

"But..." Fu Qingyun was at a loss for words for a moment. He promised that the third wife and the fourth son would not tell this matter. Although he believed that Changge would never tell, but the promise came first...

"I saw it myself." As if seeing through Fu Qingyun's mind, Baili Changge raised his eyebrows, turned around and sat down, playing with a freshly picked peony in a polished porcelain vase on the old table, and said : "Just now in the flower hall, when the third lady took Shaoqing back, he fell at the door."

Fu Qingyun moved her lips and listened quietly without speaking.

Baili Changge continued: "No matter how stupid a person is, it is impossible to make such a low-level mistake in front of Lord Hou and King Jin, because... the third lady is a cautious person, she will never allow herself, let alone Allow her son to make this kind of mistake, otherwise how could she survive these ten years?"

Seeing Fu Qingyun's drooping face, Baili Changge smiled, "Unless... the third lady made Shaoqing fall on purpose."

With a shock, Fu Qingyun immediately raised her head to look at her.

The lantern hanging at the door mottled the shadows of the scattered flowers and trees in the courtyard, the shades were deep and light, and the light was orange, smudged a layer of gentleness on her slightly cold face.

In the stillness of the night, the bright light that dyed her thick eyelashes shattered silently, as if returning to this place ten years ago, the two of them turned on the lamp to read at night, and she held her hand to correct his pen-holding posture.

Time flies, and many years have passed. I never thought that today, we can meet again in this place.

Fu Qingyun sighed in his heart. He thought that his life would be spent in endless ridicule and cold eyes. Unexpectedly, this woman who was rumored to be extremely miserable by the world used her weak hands to hold the brush and ignited the first hope in his life. , and from that time on, he swore that no matter what, he would live a good life, at least... to live with her.

"What's the matter?" Feeling that he was looking at her, Baili Changge touched his face uncomfortably, thinking it was dirty somewhere.

"No...it's nothing, I was just wondering why you could connect me with the Fourth Young Master just by seeing him fall." Fu Qingyun turned her head away and hid her face in the dark.

"Because his fingers also have calluses like yours, which would only grow on people who hold pens for a long time." Baili Changge put the peony on the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, and then said with relief: "Just don't worry, this matter I won't say it out, not to mention it's not good for me to have one more enemy in this mansion."

Hearing what she said, Fu Qingyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Stop standing, come and sit!" Baili Changge pointed to the stool next to him, and said, "I'll go and talk to Master Hou tomorrow to invite a teacher to come to the mansion to teach you."

Hearing this, Fu Qingyun stood up immediately after sitting down. In an instant, countless fears and fears flashed across his face, "I can't, I can't..." He waved his hands again and again.

Ever since he was a child, he has never enjoyed the tenderness of Baili Jing, his real uncle. Even the servants in the house look at him better than looking at the watchdog tied to the door to attract money.

Bai Lijing knew a little about his secretly learning to read and write. For him, as long as Hou Ye opened his eyes and closed his eyes and didn't expose him, it would be a great gift, so how dare he ask for a teacher.

"My brother died early, my father has no children, and you are his own nephew, and you can be regarded as the only male in the family's house in Baili. Maybe..." You may not be able to use you in the future.

Baili Changge swallowed the second half of the sentence. Fu Qingyun grew up amidst strife and oppression, and there must be a sense of inferiority in her heart that she was ashamed to say. She knew that he would definitely accept these words. no.

To completely change a person's perception of the world, preaching alone is not enough. The feudal thoughts in Fu Qingyun's bones must be changed from the trivial things around him.

Without waiting for Fu Qingyun to speak, Baili Changge said again: "Don't worry, whenever you need it, just ask for it in the future, Lord Hou will definitely satisfy you."

"Because you are the prospective emperor's eldest grandson concubine, so uncle... Lord Hou, will he obey your orders?" Fu Qingyun suddenly looked at her, with no expression on her hidden face at this time. He didn't mention the solemnity of Lord Hou, but there was an emotion in his eyes that Baili Changge couldn't understand.

Like pouring out, like mourning.

"No." Baili Changge answered very simply. From the moment she received the letter and decided to return home, she never thought that one day she would use her status as the eldest grandson concubine to clear away all obstacles, and even , She never thought that she would marry into the royal family and marry Ye Tianyu.

"Cousin Qingyun, you believe me, I didn't go for fun in the past ten years, and I didn't come back ten years later to succumb to the so-called destiny." Baili Changge looked very serious, and said firmly: "Although I don't have the power to turn the clouds and rain upside down and disrupt the situation in this world, but as long as I have breath, I will never give in to those who think they can manipulate the fate of others, and I hope you can be like me, in this thorny and remote Go forward bravely on a road with no end in sight.”

"Hmm..." Fu Qingyun gave her a surprised look, then nodded solemnly.

He has always known her intelligence, and she is by no means as useless as the outside rumors, but he did not expect that ten years later, she will seem to have changed her soul, and the tenacity and rebelliousness in her bones are fully revealed. She believes that even if such a woman does not rise above the Above Jiuzhong, she will definitely let herself break free from the shackles of imperial power and live out her own real life.

"You've just come back, haven't you eaten yet?" Fu Qingyun couldn't help asking, seeing the faint look of exhaustion on Baili Changge's face.

"Not yet!" I was not hungry at first, but I was really hungry after being reminded by him. Baili Changge rubbed his stomach and stood up, "Just now I heard the girls say that the banquet has been set, I'm afraid everyone will be hungry now. We're all waiting in the dining room, let's go there quickly!"

"I... Changge, you go, I've already eaten." Fu Qingyun lowered her eyelashes and said.
